Partners to ten

Along with solving mystery numbers in numbers sentences, a big focus in math has been building fluency with partners to make 10. The othr day we played a fun game to practice this. One child held a card on their head and the partner told them the number that goes with their card to make ten. Then the child had to figure out the number! So fun!

Sprints

Have you heard about the sprints we are doing in math? Each day we warm up our brains by doing a sprint. These sprints are different tasks that are timed for a short time (usually one minute). This builds fluency. The children are loving seeing their improvement each day. The sprints change every so often and we are loving them!
